1/13/25 KCL 20 mEq Back Order Plan

January 13, 2025

Now that KCL 20 mEq/100 mL premix bag availability has improved, we have switched PowerPlans (including electrolyte protocol) and order sentences back to the 20 mEq order sentence at HHM/HBH/OPM. 

 

HWC will continue to use the 10 mEq bags at this time.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns.

 

Thanks!
Katie
